I think some Army bases they even get out of their cars to stand at attention. Here in Japan they play the US National Anthem AND the Japanese National Anthem- which is very long by the way. It's funny- because all the Japanese on base just go on with their day while all the Americans stop what they are doing and face the flag (or direction of music.) The kids even do it at school. It's pretty cool I think. They also have PM colors at dusk and taps at 9 or 10."<br /><br />Yes, I have heard of some Army bases doing that. That is funny that they play both anthems there. I guess Americans really respect their flag! Makes me feel good about our country! Thanks for commenting! :) Have a wonderful day!Kathrynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07062774818419855236noreply@blogger.com
